I have that extension, but it doesn't quite do what I want tongue It still needs me to fill in the name of the URL wink

I like the style. It's bright and clean, yet neither garish nor drab.

You need to create a database in your host's control panel and then enter its name into the installation form (depending on your host, you may pick this name or it may be assigned to you).

They're probably paying for something more along the lines of "forum" or "forums", but I wouldn't be surprised if they pay for "PunBB" too.

That is, after all, what is so lucrative about contextual advertising.

And besides, you can always add them to your AdSense ban list, can't you? Also, was it PhpBB, or a PhpBB host? I think the latter would be more likely.

Sweet Looking forum, pog!  Simple, elegant... I do not typically look at 'show off' stuff, but this came up in a search and I am glad I saw it - lets me know there's so much more that can happen with punbb that it's just ridiculous.
Thank you for sharing.
Cheers,

Thanks. smile

Much of the credit goes to Andreas Viklund though. He's awesome.

The second code should be:

else if (isset($_POST['form_sent']))
{
    $username = pun_trim($_POST['req_username']);
    $email1 = strtolower(trim($_POST['req_email1']));

    if ($pun_config['o_regs_verify'] == '1')
    {
        $email2 = strtolower(trim($_POST['req_email2']));

        $t3hadm1n1 = random_pass(8);
        $password2 = $password1;

I'm not sure about the first one though. Maybe I'm just blind. Try uploading a fresh copy of functions.php.

Smartys, it's useful as it will reduce the pagesize sent to the client, but i don't really see how it could possibly reduce cpu use...

That's not what he said. He just said that the amount of CPU your server uses depends upon the level of compression you choose. If you choose a high level of compression, you will use a high level of CPU; if you choose a low level of compression, you will use a low level of CPU.

No, there's no interface for interacting with PunBB from outside the server. You'd have to write something yourself to do that.

In register.php, find the following:

message($lang_register['Reg e-mail'].' <a href="mailto:'.$pun_config['o_admin_email'].'">'.$pun_config['o_admin_email'].'</a>.', true);

Replace with the following:

message($lang_register['Reg e-mail'], true);

In lang/English/register.php, find the following:

'Reg e-mail'                =>    'Thank you for registering. Your password has been sent to the specified address. If it doesn\'t arrive you can contact the forum administrator at',

Replace with the following:

'Reg e-mail'                =>    'Thank you for registering. Your password has been sent to the specified address. If it doesn\'t arrive you can contact the forum administrator.',

To use a contact form, you'd need to do a bit of modding on your own. You might either modify PunBB's built-in email form, modify one of the bajillion free contact scripts out there, or write a simple contact form from scratch.

i also noticed that if you have "users can delete their posts" off and "users can delete their topic" on than i get an error when i try to delete my topic... that seems more like a bug.

If users can't delete their individual posts, why would they be able to delete entire topics?

there is an option of " user group -- member -- delete the posts"
i set it up.
and i found when i login with a normal member ,i can not delete my post ,coz there is no option let me to delete there is only " report " and "quote"

Please double-check that you have configured things properly. I don't see why this would be happening. Perhaps you are trying to delete a post that is the start of a topic, but do not have the option set to allow normal members to delete their own topics.

If user can "edit posts" the option "delete posts" is not so important. Because he/she can turn his post become a "empty post". A "empty post" is also the same as "deleted post" :-)

Actually, deleting a post may be used for purposes other than simply removing its content from view. For example, to covertly bump a topic, some users delete their posts (when they are the last in their respective topics) and repost a copy of it. It can be quite irritating. sad

Yes, as long as you find the proper CSS selector for each. If you ask specifically for what you want, I'll be glad to help (and I'm sure others will be too), but you may want to read up on CSS as well.

Anyway, for category title you might try

#punindex DIV.blocktable H2 SPAN

and for post body you might try

Looks nice, although unfortunately I have to be a grammar jerk and point out that it should be "demos" and "screenshots", not "demo's" and "screenshot's". Adding -'s to a noun makes it possessive, not plural.
